I only fly one-way out of or into ATL. I don't do connections. I see poors in the airport but I never see them on my Delta flight. I assure those people bought the super discount multiple-connection tickets with shitty codeshares where you might as well drive there with the amount of time and bullshite you have to endure on those flights.

They wear pajamas with "juicy" on the butt to save money.

I do wonder the same thing, and they are usually in 1st class.

It was after Covid, probably 2022, so yeah it fricking happened. I wish it wasn’t true.

I was in uniform, so I guess she thought I was rich or something.

Are they actually poor or do they just dress like homeless people because they are lazy and have zero self respect?

They don’t buy into scams like health, property, and auto insurance. Allows more freedom. My net worth is 2.5 million and give the middle finger to the same.

I don’t know, but they are a huge part of the reason I rarely fly.

They were saving up for a Carnival cruise but are now banned and have to spend that money somewhere.

Laugh all you want. Met a baw the other day paying boat insurance. I’ve had a boat since I was a teenager and never crossed my mind to write someone a check for this.

They are not flying all the time, as in like 13% of the flight matches 13% of society.

They are just more noticeable even if there are only a handful on the flight.

It's our punishment for cotton.

When I was a kid, only my friends who were particularly well to do flew regularly. And I’m talking about amongst people at a private school in the 1990s. Nowadays, it seems like people from all walks of life on flights.
